Hmmm... Erika's pictures do look amazing... I had a Nikon & I broke it (Halloween party + too much witch's brew = oops!) and it was a really wide angle lense great for getting shots of entire rooms. I loved it. But then I wanted a camera that made ppl look good so I bought my friend's camera bc her pics always looked great, a Canon. Maybe I'm more critical of my own pics, but I still miss my Nikon. (I know the canon I have is a different model, but my pics are all from a Canon so you can check them out.) hope I didn't confuse you more!

I am looking into getting a Digital SLR as well and from what I hear, it's totally a personal preference thing. Apparently, one isn't better than the other, it just depends on what feels more comfortable to you. They both take excellent pictures. Congratulations!

Love your blog, I frequent often. Anyway, I have the Cannon and love it, but my photographer friend has the Nikkon and loves it too. Either way, they are both cameras, the key thing is learning how to use it to make the awesome pictures. Good luck!

I have the D40, the more rookie version of yours, and I love it. I compared the Canon and Nikons, and you're right - it's really justa comparison of Red Delicious versus Gala. Many photogs seem to have their preference. Go back to Erika's posts on cameras, and you see she reminds us rookie dSLR-ers (as she learned)that it's all in the LENS!! Can't wait to see your new forays with the camera - you'll love it!

yeah! i love my canon... it was actually a suggestion from 2 pro photographers (one interior photographer and one portrait/childrens photographer), both of whom used to shoot with Nikons but have since changed... I think they are totally comparable cameras. I know there are pros who shoot with both. I really got the canon in the end because I already had lenses from my old non-digital SLR, which I was really comfortable with. let me know what you decided to do!

I've been redecorating rooms for as long as I can remember. I always been the go-to gal for picking out paint colors or fabrics for a bedroom re-model. I've finally decided to get my high-heeled foot in the design door and open my own Interior Decorating firm called Effortless Style.
